Thanks to Datha's suggestion, I re-worked the image to remove some light-colored and distracting areas in some of the windows. This one submitted for the monthly theme "Green with Envy". #10065660

Good work in the end...I'm glad you left the shadow on the door, it matches the shadows on the other windows...and the brown in those several windows balance... :-) #10066145
